Clinical trials

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Bushen Yiqi formula combined with dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in the treatment of women with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). The study also aims to assess the safety profile of this combined therapy. The main questions this study aims to answer include: 1. Can the Bushen Yiqi formula combined with DHEA improve ovarian reserve in women with DOR? 2. Does the combined treatment improve hormone levels, ovarian follicle parameters, and clinical symptoms? 3. What safety issues may occur during treatment with the Bushen Yiqi formula combined with DHEA? Researchers will compare the Bushen Yiqi formula combined with DHEA to DHEA plus placebo to determine whether the combined therapy is more effective in treating diminished ovarian reserve. Participants will: 1. Be randomly assigned to either the treatment group or the control group 2. Receive DHEA combined with the Bushen Yiqi formula or DHEA combined with placebo for 12 weeks 3. Undergo regular clinical assessments during the study period 4. Have ovarian reserve markers (including AMH and antral follicle count), sex hormone levels (FSH, LH, E2, and testosterone), traditional Chinese medicine symptom scores, Kupperman menopausal index scores, inflammatory markers (CRP and IL-6), and safety indicators evaluated before and after treatment

This real-world study aims to investigate the association between the consumption of Pueraria lobata radix and adverse events in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) under special scenarios. By retrospectively analyzing the clinical data of patients with T2DM, we will evaluate the safety profile of Pueraria lobata radix in different special populations, identify potential risk factors, and provide evidence-based support for the safe consumption and clinical use of Pueraria lobata radix.

As a dietary herb, pueraria lobata radix (PLR) has been showed to have hypoglycemic effects in animal experiments. However, there is currently a lack of evidence from randomized controlled trials. Therefore, this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial aims to assess the efficacy and safety of PLR as an adjunctive treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Lumbar disc herniation with radiculopathy (LDHR) is the local displacement of the intervertebral disc and its contents beyond the edge of the normal intervertebral disc space, resulting in pain, weakness or numbness in the muscle or dermatomal distribution area. Electroacupuncture is based on obtaining the needling sensation manually and applying electrical stimulation of different frequencies and intensities, aiming to enhance the intensity of acupoint stimulation to improve the effect. As a kind of acupoint stimulation therapy, electroacupuncture has shown analgesic effects in animal experiments. However, at present, the clinical evidence of electroacupuncture applied in the treatment of LDHR is still insufficient. Therefore, this randomized, single-blind, sham electroacupuncture controlled trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of electroacupuncture as a treatment for LDHR.
